AGNES is crafted from 100% natural luxury fibers: extra-fine merino (approx. 19.5 microns), cashmere (approx. 16 microns), and yak (approx. 16 microns). This composition results in a comfortably warm and cozy yarn. The construction is a chainette style, which significantly reduces pilling while providing the yarn with impressive volume and lightness—qualities that would otherwise be difficult to achieve with such fine fibers. The yak fibers contribute a completely unique, natural, and subtly heathered (mélange) effect.
Agnes by Permin is a super-soft yarn. Despite its lightness, it gives your knitting a beautiful, full-bodied appearance. Agnes is "knitting-friendly" and therefore well-suited for beginners who want to treat themselves to a luxury yarn at an affordable price. Because the natural base color of yak fiber is brown, it is not possible to produce very light pastel shades. The versatile color palette spans from classic beige and elegant royal blue to deep black—eight beautiful colors in total, curated to match the Nordic style.
